Properties of Similarity Transformations
You can explain it, but can you do it? After learners view a sequence of transformations, the next logical step is creating the transformation. Challenge your classes to construct a composition of transformations and verify the...
Illustrative Mathematics
Which Function?
Throw some logic into quadratics and see if learners can match a vague graph to multiple equations. Young mathematicians must look at quadrant location, vertices, and intercepts to best match the graph to one or more equations.

Acids
She threw sodium chloride at me—that's a salt! Scholars match acids to their formulas as well as their salt compounds. Completing a series of three gridlock puzzles reinforces each of the matches in a logical manner.
Royal Society of Chemistry
Crude Oil
The United States consumes more oil than any other country, and its residents use 50 percent of that for transportation. Scholars match eight fractions of crude oil to their applications. Then, they fill in three logic puzzles reviewing...

Alkanes
Alkanes contain only single bonds and have no functional groups. Scholars match the properties of six alkanes in a series of four puzzles. Problem solving and logic help cement the concepts with repetition.
Royal Society of Chemistry
Allotropes of Carbon
Carbon takes on many forms including diamond, graphite, and buckminsterfullerene. Scholars review their knowledge of these three allotropes of carbon as they complete four puzzles. The first acts as a general review, and the other three...

Noble Gases
It is best to avoid jokes about noble gases; they get no reaction. Scholars match the noble gases to their symbols and uses. Then they solve three gridlock puzzles reviewing the material while applying some simple logic.
Royal Society of Chemistry
Ionic Formulae 1
The ionic formula for banana would be BaNa2. Scholars work their way through four puzzles reviewing ionic formulas. Each puzzle requires scientific knowledge as well as logic and problem-solving skills.
Royal Society of Chemistry
Alcohols (16-19)
Propanol is a common alcohol used in hand sanitizers. The many forms and uses of alcohols fill an intriguing lesson. Scholars apply logic to match alcohols, chemical structural formulas, oxidation products, and more in a series of puzzles.
Royal Society of Chemistry
Types of Bonding
A covalent bond yells at an ionic bond, "Didn't anyone teach you to share?" Four matching puzzles allow pupils to review covalent, ionic, and metallic bonding. They apply logic and problem solving to complete gridlocks including the...
